Matt Bissonnette is a former United States Navy SEAL who served with SEAL Team Five starting in 1999, graduating as Honor Man from BUD/S class 226, and participated in key operations including the 2009 Maersk Alabama hijacking rescue and the 2011 raid on Osama bin Laden's compound during Operation Neptune Spear. After retiring from the military, he authored the bestselling book No Easy Day under the pseudonym Mark Owen, providing a firsthand account of the bin Laden mission that drew both acclaim and controversy, including a Department of Justice investigation for potential disclosure violations. Today, Bissonnette maintains a low public profile, having also consulted on projects like the video game Medal of Honor: Warfighter while facing ongoing debates with fellow SEAL Robert J. O'Neill over their differing recollections of the raid.

Sean Murphy

Did the DOJ investigation have merit or was a politically motivated?

Lucinda Carey

No questions but looking forward to the interview

SwiperMust Swipe

Favorite piece of kit he helped develop in Devgru

Matt Stockton

His faith is important to him. How does he keep his faith with so much opposition and how does he find so much solidarity after war fighting?

Todd Turk

Do you regret writing the book given the fallout? How has it affected your life going forward? Full disclosure, I bought the book!

ChrisZ

Is it common to have very different accounts of what happened on an op?

Marqmarzz

Can You play Guitar like our Boy Rob O Neill??? Lets break up some different questions

Ryan Tarbox

What was the most difficult part about planning for the raid on Bin Laden’s compound?

Joel Smith

With the differing account than what Rob has put out there, would he support releasing video of the raid that is surely to exist?

Carnes Outdoor Chronicles

How did he make it from gunfight&clearing the fixers house to 2nd in the stack clearing the main house.

Richard Beemer

Matt, Thank You for your service! I ’ve read your books and can see how you received over 30 awards and commendations in your many deployments. Given all you have done and been through what do you consider the pinnacle/lowest points of your military career and how did you maintain/overcome through those times?

Tyler Studt - TRIBE 4 Children

This will be very interesting! Ima ask my buddy's on this. When are you interviewing him? One of my best friends was mentioned in his book No Easy Day(did alot of operations with Matt) and another was on the Bin Laden Raid there on Red Squadron.

Jesse Wayne

What if a silent war is going on ww3 and it is produced from radicalization materials from people behind hamza bin Laden cover up (still alive in afghan) and there behind dems and all assassinated attempts on americas right

Jim Bridger

Was your life time dedicated to GWOT worthwhile in hindsight, given 20 years of GWOT, what was lost, what was gained; noting that age old cliche that hindsight is 20/20?

J S

Knowing that Osama did not mastermind the 9/11 attacks (the U.S. did), how do you feel that your team and resources were used for a future surveillance state in the U.S?

Brad Leech

Many people chase purpose but rarely find it. What has purpose come to mean to you after living through both war and its aftermath?

Jon Denver aka HoLiFook

Did you work with Steph Bass and what are your thoughts on what he did on the Qali-I-Jangi prison uprising in 2001 trying to save Mike Spann

Orren Singh

Matt’s first book No Easy Day likely inspired a whole generation of young hard chargers, wherever they ended up. Even with the controversy and strain that the first book caused, does he appreciate the undeniably positive impact his books have had? I was a teenager reading about “staying in your 3 foot world” in No Hero. Now, at nearly 30 and looking back, that message got me through many of life’s challenges that I don’t think I would have handled as well or even have overcome had I not heard that as a teenager. God bless, and thanks Matt.

Jason

Thank you for your service brother.

Mark Woodruff

So first I would like to congratulate you on all of your accomplishments. We all know how the doj. Acts inappropriately due to their their own beliefs. My personal belief is that you did not do anything wrong. With that I would ask how do you deal with yourself? Your personality, especially after all those Gremlins that you have to handle for the rest of your life.

Dylan Merrifield

What is the most important life lesson you have learned that once implemented, it changed your life?

Monnie Bush

Being a mission driven man, what is your mission after leaving the SEALs and how can others discover a mission for their lives?

Robert Diggins

I am new to the specific controversies and am interested in listening. That said, was the issue of burial at sea and limited access to proof, for the public, something that has been addressed with better rationale than was initially offered? I'm not focused on this proof as much as I am the long relationship the USA had with UBL and his large wealthy family - see Carlisle Group on the private side and the mujahideen on the Brzezinski Grand Chessboard Strategy of Tension using religion foreign policy side. Thank you!

Stephen Casey

What motivated you during BUDS that resulted in being Honorman? Did it just come as a result from putting your head down and working hard every day, or did you have that in mind at some point?

Ian Lane

You and Robert O’Neill both lived through one of the most scrutinized moments in modern military history, yet your recollections of that night in Abbottabad differ. Do you think it’s possible for two operators on the same mission to remember it truthfully in completely different ways, or is one of you simply wrong?

Kristopher putnam

Excited to hear your story. Thank you for your service and sacrifice for our country.

Tee Lock

Who were your role models in building your relational/family values, faith, and vocational direction? Do you find yourself modeling or mentoring the next generations and has been your approach?

Matt

I retired from the USAF Security Forces in 2008 after 27 years with multiple deployments to the AOR. I fight my demons daily and have just now begun to tank about them in depth to my family and my mental health doc. As excruciatingly difficult as this was, I could never see myself writing a book about my experiences for personal/ financial gain. Good or bad, I see it as a betrayal to my oath and my brothers and sisters in arms and feel some things should not shared for personal or financial gain. Can you please help me understand your motivation behind going public with your book? I am trying not to judge, but to learn and heal.

Christine Perry

I think it’s important to share experiences of battle. Not all of them but we as Americans must understand the sacrifices. What better way than to share what you can through a book and on Shawn Ryan. This helps many females to understand more. And to help in any way we can.

Gotti2Guns .

My Question: * There’s been a lot of debate about the accuracy of the different versions of the Bin Laden raid. What do you think people misunderstand most about what really went down and about your side of the story?

Nathan

What is the biggest take away that you learned from being a Navy SEAL and applied to your life as a civilian that you think could help encourage anyone going through the difficulties of life?

Austin Milling

Having experienced moments most people can’t imagine, on a personal level, how have those experiences shaped the way you see yourself and what matters most in your life today?

Jeff Combe

Did BUDS actually provide any of the training you needed or did every training school after provide more useful useable training? How can the military treat soldiers as expendable and then useless after the sacrifices they make on the battlefield?

Nathaniel Schrader

Are u sure you don’t know where the “staff of power is”? 😉

Beverly

How did you & your family survive the brutal campaign to ruin you & what are the scars?

Anthony Broncheau

From remote Alaska to abottobad, how do you fathom the events that transpired and realize the importance in history from that night despite potentially feeling it was another night on the job?

Tina

What if O'Neill is telling the truth?? How can he prove it? Its odd to think, this event may land in a civilian court of law. Makes me sad to hear sof going mano a mano. 💔
